This is what Jerry’s boat looks like “coming out of the hole,” a bass boat term. Nice angle, but then he had some dead weight in back.
Slow fishing today, so this is Ozols reading a book about the greatest fisherman that ever lived. That book was written by his English friend Dennis – go check out what this is about at Dennis’s web site, www.eternalidol.com.
This year’s Loon on the nest in the channel. But see next picture.
Actually (Mrs.?) Loon was building the nest – she was pulling out weeds, placing them around her, and arranging things to her desires. We had never seen a Loon do this.
Here’s what our Government Point eagles’ nest looks like in wide angle.
And here the two eagles are in the nest. We’ve never seen that either, although there have been other nests various places around the lake.
Canadian honkers, which also must have had a nest, in the channel to Girl Lake. As best we could see, there were three little puffball babies in the weeds at their feet.
 .
Last bird picture – a heron also in the girl lake channel. There are lots of these around the lake.
Pat Kelly with his 2009 Walleye, a 16-incher caught during the last hour of the last day.
Juris Ozols with his 2009 Walleye, a 14 incher caught during the third hour before the end of the last day.
Jerry and Bruce had a “double” – two 18” Walleyes caught the last evening. These were also the biggest Walleyes of the trip. Other years we’ve had Walleyes up to 27 inches.
Bruce netting one of Jerry’s three Northern Pike. Pat Kelly continues to fish, properly ignoring the whole thing.
Finally, our standard group picture. We have these shots going back maybe 15 or 20 years or so, I’ll research that. Amazing how none of us have aged… See you next year.
